What is the orange arrow above the gear indicator after 2024 instrument software upgrade?

[OlJim]

After doing the latest instrument software upgrade, I notice a small orange arrow at the top of the gear number indicator sometime. It is almost like the shift point light found on some tachometers. .Anyone got a better explanation for what this is? I'm pretty sure it wasn't there before the upgrade.

That upshift indicator has been on my 2024 RTL since I bought it in September. I think it's only there when I have ECO mode turned on, but I'm not sure.

You are in ECO mode. Press the Mode button one time to turn it off

I've only ridden once since I did the upgrade (and it was a short ride). I can't take mine out for a test today, but I'm pretty sure that is new with the latest upgrade - even when in Normal mode (I don't use Eco mode). But yes, it does appear to be a shift indicator like the one that shows up in Eco mode.

The arrow was there already, just need to hit the right RPM

I don't think it was. I've had my Spyder RT since 2/2024 and never saw that upshift arrow until the latest firmware upgrade for the head unit. And I'm not in ECO mode either.

Sorry but it was present at least from the update before August (July). I got my S2S on the 7th of Aug and I have seen it…. it's under the blanket until spring… so I didn’t do the latest update yet.
